About Me

I'm an artist and educator, who is fascinated by how creativity expresses itself. I've been drawing for as long as I can remember, and love exploring new ways to put images together.
I've been married for over 15 years, and have two children (who keep me up to date on my education!)

Illustration Friday: Sprout

This was an interesting topic. Once it took root in my mind it continued to grow...and grow. I started with the pretty typical concept of a sprouting tree. This then blended with how my son is being taught to organize his ideas for writing in school using a story tree. And then I thought about the thought process behind creating a story. So I also took this as an illustration challenge to create a character and try to keep that character consistent through a range of expressions. Harder than I thought! Any advice?
